Maybe p&p TB, UD Pullies, Heads? Maybe step up to a 90/90? You've got a pretty damned good mod list going there.

(you've got good taste in car and color, hahaha!!)

I've been thinking about the Fast 90/90 but how much will that really help?

I know I need to get an UD pully. just haven't done it yet... thats like 15 hp

hahaha thanks! I see we have something in common lol

Yeah I would have to say maybe a UD pulley or heads and the 90/90 set-up. I don't think the P&P TB or MAF will do much.

Step up to a 90/90 and get a tune. The tune will net you the most power out of the bunch.

Tune...heads.... p&p your tb. Hey for the cost you really can't complain. And i would beg to differ that it wouldn't help much. Since your cammed and all. But if moneys not an issue 90/90's the way to go.

I think I'll end up with the UD pully.. and then the 90/90...

How much of a hp gain is expected out of the fast 90/90???

I've had a dyno tune from Texas Speed but the car still doesn't run right.. it tries to idle at 500 rpm every start up... after about a min or so it will idle up to 8500-900 rpm... and I'm loading up on fule really bad at idle also...

They warranty there tunes up to a year so send your pcm back. Gains on the fast 90/90 i really can't say since i haven't went that route lol. I just know from research its the way to go for induction if you got the cash to splurge. Good luck man.

gains with 90/90 are quite obvious when compared to a Ls6 manifold. I felt a nice sot[ feeling, as well as explosive mid range. Add sum heads, 90/90, and a good tune you'll be in the neighborhood of 420+ hp.
But I'd say go f/i if you can afford it.
Turbos...

a buddy of mine just dynoed 414rwhp and 383rwtq he has a fast 90/90 fuel rails and injectors.. with a cam not sure what the specs are on it but its a lil smaller than mine.. I just put down 395rwhp and 366rwtq

so with a 90/90 and a UD pully and heads I would hope I wouldn't just gain 20-30 hp lol
